When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you should construct a well aired pig pen which is spacious as well. You must place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that may attract insects.
Your pig pen must be adequate to accommodate all your domestic swine and really should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The fence should be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb odors that the swine produce you can put hay and straws on the ground. You can also design sections in the pen where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is needed as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your task. This should be done carefully. Make sure that you buy your pigs from a seller who has found out what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your swine are in their houses all you have to do is take good care of them. This can be done by providing them with food plus clean water on daily bases. Keep in mind to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus giving you more revenue.
